Hey there, Kenn! Thanks for popping by planDisney with your question today! Popcorn buckets are one of my favorite things to keep an eye out for whenever I visit the Walt Disney World Resort! The fun designs and great snacking value ensure we almost always add a new one to our collection on each vacation!
Kenn, inventory and availability of popcorn buckets are always subject to change; I guess you could say you never know what might
pop up when you're there! I'm happy to share with you some of the recent options that have been seen at the theme parks and at
Disney Springs, but also keep in mind by the time you visit in November, the parks will transitioning from Halloween to Christmas, so it's likely you might find some new festive popcorn bucket options to celebrate the
holiday season!
Recently spotted popcorn buckets include the following:
- At all theme parks, a standard popcorn bucket featuring Princess Tiana, Mickey Mouse, Moana, and Simba has been spotted.
- A Halloween-themed bucket featuring characters including Huey, Dewey, and Louie and Minnie Mouse, Daisy Duck, and Clarabelle Cow dressed as the Sanderson Sisters from Hocus Pocus has been seen at Magic Kingdom Park and EPCOT.
- Exclusive to Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, Mickey Mouse dressed as a pumpkin and a Scary Teddy Popcorn Bucket inspired by The Nightmare Before Christmas has been in high demand for guests to purchase.
- At Disney's Hollywood Studios, guests have found the Alien Pizza Planet Truck, Storm Troopers Salvaged Helmet Popcorn Bucket, and A Perfect Picnic Popcorn Bucket inspired by Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway. This park seems to have the most variety of buckets, and it's a fun place to keep your eyes out for unique and new offerings!
Kenn, I'm pretty sure we will start to see some Christmas-themed buckets start to deck the halls after Halloween, including party exclusives if you're attending
Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party. I'd keep a watchful eye on the
Disney Parks Blog for more details and announcements if you're interested in learning more details as they are released!
I hope this is helpful, Kenn, and I hope you will find the perfect popcorn bucket to carry with you during your visit! It's the perfect way to snack on the go and secure a fun souvenir all at once! If any other questions pop up that we can help with, feel free to come back to
planDisney and let us know!
See you real soon,
Alison
